Joe Biden looks sick

Did anyone else notice that Joe Biden looks like he has something brewing ? He looked washed out and breathless. I realise that these last few days have probably amassed a few sleepless nights, but usually the adrenaline would keep you going.

Adrenaline will keep you going on little sleep, but you'll not look good. He's been such a good example of how a leader should behave through this.

TheVanguardSix · 06/11/2020 10:23

He's 77. Sweet Lord, I couldn't do what he's doing at my age, 48.

Do you think this would normally make a person look peachy?

SaskiaRembrandt · 06/11/2020 10:29

I should imagine Biden is very tired. If anyone looks ill it's his opponent.

I'm also suspicious of all the people claiming to be concerned about Biden's health.

I don’t think he was breathless at all. I think he’s exhausted and that means he has to work even harder to overcome his stammer and that breathing technique and pauses could be mistaken as heavy breathing because of breathlessness.

He's probably exhausted. How much sleep do you think he's getting right now?

[quote Bidl]@AlternativePerspective

Are you always so rude when people make observations ?

I can make an observation. I’m gunning for Biden, but I can still have an opinion. If you think he looks fine/his appearance is a result of the sleepless nights - you can just say that![/quote]
Yes, and your opinion makes it evident that you are gunning for Biden.

@BlueThistles

Biden has been drugged up for public appearances ... the man is clearly suffering from dementia or similar..

He will not be President in any meaningful way.. just a puppet with no actual power.. Its criminal that people have pushed this man to front their agenda...

Kamala Harris will lead from the front ... and thank goodness... because Biden is not fit for office 🌺

What a bloody awful post!

Where did you get your medical degree btw?

NotMaryWhitehouse · 06/11/2020 10:32

@Honeyroar

I thought he did initially, but as he feels he’s getting closer to winning and he’s smiling more I think he’s looked better. I wonder what Trump looks like without the make up and wig!
That's what I wonder too! Terrifying, I imagine!

When Biden suggested injecting people with bleach i thought exactly the same...... oh hang on, it was Tango Trump!

Then there is Trumps demands and lies about vote rigging, if any of the candidates are unfit for office, it is not Biden.

@Serin

He looks like a thoroughly kind and decent fellow to me.
I agree.

ffs what are you going on about ? let's take it as read you are a trump supprter then ? Grin
Crappyfridays7 · 06/11/2020 10:34

Want drugs can you give a person with dementia to make them try and win an election?...drugged up how? Some weird shit on here re this election prob by people who voted trump or would I suspect

DickAndSizzy · 06/11/2020 10:34

Biden has been drugged up for public appearances

If drugs exist that can make someone who is wholly unsuitable for the post artifically seem sane and calm and collected. Why TF has no one been dosing Trump with this drug for the last four years?

caffeineanddryshampoo · 06/11/2020 10:35

I'd be exhausted too if I was desperately trying to win an election with the threat of violence going off. He must be worried that some Trump nutter is going to turn up with a gun.

feelingverylazytoday · 06/11/2020 10:35

He looks old and frail to me. Hopefully that's just the way he looks, and he's fit and strong enough to do the job (assuming he's actually won by now).

Trump looks like he's been held down and had 3 gallons of Ronseal poured over his face.

JoeBidenIsGreat · 06/11/2020 10:38

I haven't seen JB on TV but gosh he sounds wonderful on radio. Such a nice man.
Mitch O'Connell looks very ill, if we want to talk about unknown health of senior US politicians.

GetOffYourHighHorse · 06/11/2020 10:41

I cant believe he is the best the democrats could come up with. Yes great he'll, win but couldn't they have found seeming a bit more articulate and dynamic? He looks like a rabbit caught in the headlights constantly.

I thought that too op.

listening get a bloody grip! People are allowed to post their observations without someone screaming QAnon - jesus talk about trying to close down democracy. We DO still live in a democracy and people CAN post what they like!
